have more of that in business in twenty minutes. we're broadcasting live from moscow welcome to the program the firestorm surrounding rupert murdoch's media empire is spreading as arrests outrage and resignations continue this questions are asked of the demise of a journalist shown more than credited with reading the phone hacking scandal. or reports his death has reignited debate over another high profile death at the heart of a different drummer. another police erupts another whistleblower diaries sean hoare was the first former news of the world journalists to go on the record to allege that phone hacking was endemic at the paper and that its editor andy

colson actively encouraged it who was found dead in his house on monday setting the blogosphere into a frenzy of comparisons with the case of dr david kelly why isn't the sun horror story bigger reminds me of how disconnected kerry was bumped off eerily similar tragedies of seen war and david kelly all this madness and war there and then it can be shown who are that's what i'm thinking something's not right. dr kelly was the u.n. weapons inspector who first cast doubt on the government's claim that iraq could deploy weapons of mass destruction within forty five minutes it led to scrutiny of tony blair's decision to invade iraq by extraordinary coincidence kelly's body was discovered exactly seven years before that of sean hordes on the eighteenth of july two thousand and three it was british journalist andrew gilligan who david kelly had spoken to to publicize his belief that the forty five minute claim had been

exaggerated gilligan believes there are similarities between kelly and sean hoare being at the center of one of these storms a terrifying experience i really don't believe all sean hoare was murdered because . i simply don't think it would have been in anyone's interest to murder them once they got into the public spotlight anyone with an iota of sense in government would have known that to kill them would just would just amplify the story i think it's simply i think both were under enormous pressure from their roles as whistle blows and and found it difficult to cope with that pressure short haul was evidence could have been crucial to proving that the news of the world editors supported a culture of listening to private voice mail sport stories because former editor andy cole said he later became a media director to the current prime minister has always denied the allegations and was destroyed professionally by views international the journalistic world in london is

a very small amount was his story is well known who is drinking tonight is taking drugs he was the preston. police the thing cause death doesn't appear suspicious and they're looking at suicide dr kelly's death was also recorded as suicide although many including leading doctors and m.p.'s have never accepted that their suspicions of hardly been quelled by the fact that post-mortem reports and other evidence has been classified for seventy years. ten arrests six resignations two convictions and one death that told of the phone hacking scandal so far. he whistleblower scandal has raised questions but stay far only about twitter aussie it's being reported as a horrible and unfortunate coincidence but it's doubtful that if it happened elsewhere say in russia or in india the british media would be so quick to accept it as a coup it states particularly gets out in the light of the death of david kelly.

and the prime minister's toys when you score and his efforts to head off the crisis yet take a toll on him and his government and look at how he. really gave the story legs was the fact that david cameron the then disgraced. because of the conservative party for the made in his director of communications i don't think without without that trying to kind of. legs given the story i think it probably wouldn't have been quite so big as it is now but the fact is there are some errors of judgment turns out shown by the governing conservative party but david cameron yes again his chief of staff has been shown to be essentially instigating a cover up by the connections because i have to sort of phone hacking. the prime minister who then leader of the opposition david cameron did know about it there's

been a large amount of fingers in ears and just a kind of heads in the sand and that is lethal for a prime minister and he's now in a real fight he's in a real really bad situation he could well be looking at some serious consequences for himself at the very least start still around him. well still to come on the program finding the man behind the drones. it's only human rights groups want to press charges for unmanned tax pledge of leak killing hundreds of civilians by going after a former cia director who proved the strikes. on news don't allies soldiers who fought in a war against lebanon running ourselves stuck in a country that's gotten their existence. george is the latest spy saga has taken yet another twist to be seen and says three photojournalists locked up on charges of espionage on behalf of russia have confessed their guilt

results is really the little reports there are concerns that the suspects were coerced into admitting crimes they didn't commit. and then there were none the last georgian photographer to deny allegations of spying has apparently changed his story he now admits the charges video testimony of georgie have the largest confession of spying for russia was released by prosecutors to the media at most journalists are skeptical about this latest development for our. old me it is very strange and there is in the middle of the night in business is there a case has been like this old secret like old this raises questions to not getting any answers and this confession is a serious face three user because with us about this whole deal. you will get the lots and maintained his innocence ever since he along with three other photojournalists was arrested at the beginning of this month old including present his personal photographer were accused of passing on top secret information to

russia's military intelligence or initially insisted they were innocent and then one by one the photographers started changing their testimonies eventually three of them incriminated themselves in his panoz but up the odds they insisted he was not guilty and even went on a hunger strike to provoke this point in fact his lawyer says the photographer seems to have changed his mind over the space of just ten minutes and that's led to questions over the circumstances under which the photographer seems to have changed his story and then actually editor of all the a newspaper digital grabs it believes these admissions of guilt show the case has been fabricated. we live in a totalitarian state and they all power is concentrated in the hands of president saakashvili and if someone goes against him all of us will end up like this if the interior ministry has any other proof of their guilt he wouldn't have to force these confessions i took them by what they were basically this is

a message for all of our journalists including me and all the. members of the new. i heard the message loud and clear and stage a protest outside the jail with you could talk refers are being held and preliminary detention when rights activists meanwhile believe will hardly expect the system of power in the country. it's very likely that of their lives or will be forced to ask for my removal from the case investigators want everyone who can interfere out of the picture so they can lead it the way they want to they want the case of the photographers to and without any public discussion and that's possible if all the arrested plead guilty. and well the case it seems outrageous to journalists and many ordinary people it's just the latest in a seemingly endless string of spies scandals to hit georgia. r.t. . well there you can find out more background on how the georgian spy scandal it's

on our web site that's our team. so make them bishan find out how ukrainian female activists show their support for the georgian for the. cat lovers could soon be seen worshipping on mass as moscow gets its own temple educated and people are. free pretty free. for free range free. free. free. free broadcast to mediocre for your media projects a free video got to our t.v. dot com. u.k. based human rights group together with pakistani activists are seeking an arrest warrant for a former cia director actually responsible for drone strikes which killed hundreds of civilians now retired john rizzo it may take an interview that he had been

approving such attacks in pakistan since two thousand and four it's not the fact is that war the country a purpose of the strikes was to target al qaeda militants but the total civilian toll was estimated at up to two thousand five hundred people so. stunning lawyers have already filed complaints against him so accusing her of conspiring to kill innocents an american antiwar activist ran from the lessons on its own interests in the region. the basic justification for this program is that it's protecting america it's necessary for us national security in fact all the figures that we've seen in these drone strikes you surely are the people who stand we've heard you call them read pakistani taliban in numbers and go i'm going to turks but we've moved. east into the we do have the heartland to the point where they now has a major threat to the pakistani government. the pakistani military so much that

there's now talk of a mantra a military coup on the front page of the new york times and most important we have poured into the u.s. ambassador and better solution real than the wiki leaks cables. were so the u.s. is so hated now in pakistan the government is afraid it's corporation with iran safeguarding its nuclear materials which are the world's fastest growing and by all experts will tell you the least secure so the result of this drone campaign is their sphere creasing the danger in the united states conventional and or nuclear terrorist attack. eleven years israel's a treat from lebanon thousands of soldiers are still struggling to cope with the consequences of that withdrawal by all members of the so-called south lebanese army backed israeli forces they feel their sacrifices come recognized pulis limits one

former soldier says that the full support of the country he fought for. and there's only one thing for was national dreams about and that is true return home that home is southern lebanon and he's stuck here on the other side of the border in northern israel. that's my home five kilometers away eleven years ago for was was one of several thousand christian a binny's to flee with the israeli army as it left lebanon for eighteen years the israelis had been fighting the palestine liberation organization and his fellow on lebanese soil helped by the south lebanon army a militia of questions shias andrews' control the south of the country this old lebanese army has been fired for israel as a word that is there didn't fight for. it was admitting of interest between them and us but growing domestic pressure in his role of the high losses suffered by the army finally convince the government to withdraw and it did so quickly. arya

epstein was a soldier at the time and says the lebanese soldiers who helped israel were left behind almost like sitting ducks that's what. if we're soldiers knew little about us leaving they for sure. there was some sort of selection the commanders were brought here but i'm sure if you were a driver not much was going for you. some seven thousand army soldiers crossed into israel those who were left behind were tried jailed and sometimes killed as traitors for was nash and was one of those who got out alive he'd been working with israeli intelligence opting to recruit lebanese spies i did not want to really hear i want to die fighting with the israeli intelligence almost forced me to cause i was told you know too much but the way they treat me now is a shame they forced me to run away and now they spit on my face six months ago i'm no lawyer found for was living in a tent on the street he was hardly surviving on a few hundred dollars a month the israeli government gave him i feel ashamed. in my country. they're

treating not only the peso for was not jim but two thousand people that remain in state in israel why the country and the state of israel are treating them like. it's a charge the government is aware of although it says it's doing its best to help them by giving cash education and in some cases although not in far as a home. for them already eleven years. ago the thing we don't have we must. it's a very unique it's a very unique nobody that if they do the. european union will never nobody of them. but still that treatment was not enough to stop two thirds of those who came to israel from immigrating elsewhere but i feel betrayed the beast sitting in

a special intelligence forces have not given me any help since i've been here. border and then used to be known as the good friends but in the last eleven years since the israelis withdrew from lebanon the situation has deteriorated and this is because the defense has since become close friends and through its bars israel's forgotten friends seem condemned to fit a peek at the family they're more than likely never see again policy r.t. on the israel lebanon border. now with the american space shuttle program it's you to officially end the return of atlantis on its last mission on thursday there are some that say the country's dream of space exploration is now over position rejected williams' distinguished astronomer and then behind the hubble space telescope he says the golden era of space research is in its prime you can see full interview with him next up here. we're going through difficult periods now in the

past few years but when i talk about the golden age of astronomy i talk about the the space missions that we've had in the past fifteen years and the large ground based observatories and the new technological developments that have been able to us to do things like adaptive optics supercomputers that are really advanced her understanding of astronomy if you look at the fundamental discoveries that have been made in astronomy about paul sawers a cause of ours and the existence of planets around others in the past fifteen years there's been an explosion of knowledge about things and then largely is due to important technological developments so they've all come together because of the raj number of discoveries that i would say really makes it appropriate to call this age a golden era of the strong. now when

it comes to starting a family telling the couples in russia will stop at nothing many of the countries six million infertile couples a surrogacy is their only chance of having a child despite the practice being legal in russia the end result isn't always a case of families. these first photos of vandal made him an orphan seen he was ill his genetic parents refused even to hold him the boy has a rare and incurable genetic disease but. they simply threw him out like an unwanted kitten and picked a healthy one. while his healthy twin brother enjoys family life and don't has no one but hospital staff helping him to survive the boy's surrogate mother also disappeared soon after the delivery it's also sponsibility to hear all the children . you for. so to trial in an orphanage

they should pay for that and they should. pay i don't want to. over their income. it's a pita their normal floor is not implemented you are in our country little and on stories just one of the shocking examples of shortcomings in the russian family code that seeks to regulate surrogacy in the country for a group limited as those in our modern world the idea of sometimes distorted it even be used to avoid the hardships of pregnancy and to preserve the beauty of a body this is why you spoilt i am rich white and by a surrogate an indian a nanny to bring the child that's emasculating the idea of humanness and turn surrogacy into a business renting out a womb costs from twenty to thirty thousand dollars however often either those who pay in or the surrogate want to admit their involvement in the process the attitude to surrogacy in russia is ambiguous so many women simply don't want anyone to know

their baby is carried by another one out of the many it's easier to resort to small oh not such a small why. how about one scene in public with this there really is no going back and the sides become entangled in a legal and moral not blackmail homes intended parents well sorry good mothers greatest fear is not getting paid most of them see surrogacy as the only solution to their financial misery if we had no other choice we lived at my mom's place and i know people in four to six square meter is. zinaida mother of two hoped giving both the money would allow her buy an apartment for her large family however halfway through the pregnancy the kinetic parents demanded she a board they had shopped around and their backup was very twins. the biological father sprawled out in front of men and on chair and almost knocked when he was saying don't you understand we need neither you nor the baby. zenaida's still hoped

they'd accept the baby but instead ended up with no feet and an addition to her family. a go all you were. mediator and it comes from or were all just. too little and don't these legal details are called comfort the question is whether he will ever want to know who his real parents are and why they treated him as a commodity. party scale. well it's have a look at some other top stories from around the world the south rebels have suffered severe losses while trying to seize the strategic eastern libyan town of brega it was shelled by government forces and trucks in the skies with little insurgents a guard has also been complicated by that much reportedly planted by colonel gadhafi insists doctors are from nearby hospitals at least eight rebels have died

in recent fighting. dozens of people have protested in front of the japanese embassy in south korea and tokyo's decision to remain there after the airlines test flight in a disputed territory the who it's like she passed a three eighty rescue of all the other things japan claims as its territory as you countries have been disputing the sovereignty of the ins for many years of incentives were created in the east sea in the distance from japan and south korea. u.s. president barack obama has welcomed the bipartisan senate proposal for a debt cutting plan crafted by senators proposals aim to decrease the deficit about their trillion us dollars over the next decade introductions will mainly effect health spending on education and labor programs. two weeks left to avoid a looming default of the makers from both parties also discussing lifting federal

it. businesses up next with mary. hello and welcome to business here on r.t.l. we start this hour with russia which has removed the capital gains tax for foreigners trading on the country's stock exchanges the move is known to the track for their investments and further promote moscow as an international financial center of the us are going to see an ad running so says investors will block on the change of people who are in north raising russian the mystic stalks no three zero zero four g g r storm. if they don't want to play or you know talks something about speed talks previously set up before structures or international investors more injuries yourself will be excused from talks as in the previous search up so in the current change for example three of the missing stops

were police and the same condition as international law there are three of them so really this creates for them victory which will push them into the mysteries and so it's going to be with the support of the mystical unity. stock markets are letting out a little sigh of relief well at least for the normans the welcome for us and obama's news of progress on raising america's debt ceiling but there's still concern a new round of quantitative easing or more simply nonny prancing could be on the cards drug gudrun from and believes they're not a factor of a cash stimulus is questionable. essentially q.e. two or three is nothing more than printing up money out of thin air one of the things that people don't realize is that the six to seven hundred billion dollars that was printed up in q e two all went overseas if you look at where a majority of that money went over six hundred billion and went to the european

banks basically to support their balance sheets in the wake of what's going on here none of that money was really used to stimulate the economy that the aftereffects of printing up more money are evidence i think what we have to do is look back in history there are a few times where we could look back at when the government decides to inflate over growth what are the ancillary implications and one of them of course is the fact that you see both commodity prices and would be prices incidentally go up simultaneously. but let's take a look at the markets now crude on the rise we can see that light sweet is our point sixteen cents this hour and brant is point seventy two cents the price increase kongs after a strong u.s. housing data and that kind of planning that of what in technical default. and european stock markets have opened higher with financials driving gains.

here in moscow both northcott's are now open and they are on a positive note so the r.t.s. is our one percent and my sex is adding four hundred seventy four percent. i look ahead so that they strayed on day about ghana from gas from bank expects the sideways movements to continue in the absence of any bad moves. today will be a day of sort of like three in the sidelines guys and then no no manager and our friend should chicago and therefore i think the market will be that we will look to the to the stars how with the color done the previous day and you know make maybe some corrections but overall especially given that saturday's and middle of the summer and the market are not really tend to be very active anyways so i was thinking that if no major bad news will happen the restart example recently but did nothing and now it's already a done deal then the market should be able to be more flat even maybe even

a little higher. and that's all the business is find out why the headlines with cory. culture is that so much of the commercial calls you write on it becomes obvious that a dead end long as a deadline for the us twenty three six good ceiling moves would appear to be more not politics in upcoming elections than fixing
